ton which will hereafter be the guide

intent of this new departure. They
are as follows:

enment is rapid and educational facil.
tiles are such that all who make au
effort may acquire an education fully
fitting them for the practical duties
of life.
"We have endeavored to so arrange
this course of study that, whatever
may be the future career of our stu
dents, they may look back upon the
time spent in this school as we'll spent.

OBITUARY.
r. ]. Hopkins, ESQ.,, PIeasantvilIe,

DIED-At his home in Pleasant.
vile, Venaugo county, Pa, at L
o'clock, NJ, Saturday, June 1S,
1887, r. j. Hopkins, Esq, aged 63
years, 2 months, and 16 days.
The deceased died suddenly. lie
seemed to be in unusually good health
and spirits on the day of his deCesse.
He had been working around the
store in the morning, and later in the
forenoon had gone home and gone
into the garden to work some potatoes
planted there, He came into the
house after getting through with these
and remarking that he felt tired he
lit his pipe and went out and sat down
uDder an apple tree short distance
from the house. He sat there about
10 minutes aud then got up and came
to the house. AS he reached the
porch he was observed by young
lady working at the house, to take
hold Of two posts that supported the
porch, with his hands, and then to fall,
sliding slowly down between the posts.
The young lady mentioned hurried
to him. He gasped twice only after
she reached. him. 1t is probable he
had been overheated and had cooled
off too suddenly, although he had
mentioned TO his wife when he came
in from the garden that he had a pain
in his breast. He was the youngest of
family of eight tour boys and four
girls-and is the only one yet deceased.
He was, at his death, and had been
for many years, member of the u.
P. church. He had been elected to
the Office of Justice Of the Peace, at
last Springs election. Mr.. Main, of
Pleasantville, who died also quite sud
denly, having been sick only few
days, short time previous, was also
Justice of the Peace.
Mr.. Hopkins had always enjoyed
unusually good health. In the last
% years Of his life he had never been
so sick as to require the aid of doc,
tor. He leaves five children, all boys,
and all living: H. j. Hopkins OF
Pleasantville; j. NJ, of Ohio; l.. j.,
of this place; G. T., Of Iowa; and
r. A., of Pleasantville; all of whom
were at his funeral. There is one OF
the family dead-a girl.
The funeral took place on Monday
June 20, at 4 o'clock, p. M. Hi
body rests in Fairview cemetery
Pleasantville. Rev. Stevenson of the
Presbyterian church in that place
conducted the services. The attend
ance at the funeral was very great
evidence of the respect and esteem il
which Mr., Hopkins was held by those
who knew him and knew Of him.

Now, don't rush frantically to locate
it. A large portion of the vast tract is
mountain, and most of the remainder
is covered from one to fifty feet deep
with sand, the chief products being
